Iraq, eventhough being war-torn & having super-high daily casualties, wants to increase its oil production to 3 million bpd (barrels-per-day). Its current production now stands @ 2.5 million bpd.
In about 10-years, the production can be upped to 6 million bpd. Iraqi Oil Minister Hussein Shahristani also mentioned that there are @50 discovered fields still awaiting developments. Wow!!!
So, NEVER let those photos of ravaged cities, people dying and burnt buildings fooled you about Iraq.
It is a RICH oil-producing country with TREMENDOUS WEALTH & POTENTIAL.
Thus no wonder lah, even the uninvited guests want to continue staying there...........to continue reaping the wealth of the country.
As Metallica puts it, "SAD but TRUE".
